re: What should we expect out of BBALL next year?

I just have no faith in Alleva's ability to effectively evaluate his coaches after his handling of Miles over the last 16 months.

Why? He gets a bad rap unjustifiably. Miles was one of our winningest coaches in program history. I wanted him gone several years ago because I thought he was incompetent, but it was a tricky situation because he'd win just enough.

He promised changes offensively last year. Alleva game him a shot to fix it. It was glaringly obvious he did nothing to address the offense. Alleva fired him. Put us way ahead of the game finding a coach.

We allegedly targeted Herman. I don't believe Jimbo was ever coming here. Texas opened up. He chose Texas. There wasn't much out there after Herman. He's giving a guy who could be a better fit for the job than anyone an opportunity to essentially prove himself. He hasn't given him a huge contract. There are protections in case he doesn't. I think it's a decent way to do it.

He hired Jones under pressure from the old crew.

So, I'm glad he fired Miles. Results on O are TBD. And he made the wrong call on Jones under pressure from other players. So, one bad hire. And one TBD. Baseball is set.

I don't care about other sports.
